An angular stopcock, also known as an angle stop valve or angle valve, is a type of plumbing valve used to control the flow of water or other fluids in a piping system. It is called “angular” because it is designed at a right angle, which means it has an L-shaped or 90-degree configuration. This design allows it to be installed in tight spaces where a traditional inline valve might not fit.
Angular stopcocks are commonly used in residential and commercial plumbing applications to shut off the water supply to specific fixtures or appliances, such as sinks, toilets, and dishwashers. They are typically installed on the supply lines that connect these fixtures to the main water supply. When the valve is in the open position, water flows freely through it. Turning the handle or lever 90 degrees to the closed position stops the flow of water.
Angular stopcocks come in various sizes and materials to suit different applications, and they may have compression, threaded, or soldered connections. It’s important to choose the right type and size of stopcock for your specific plumbing needs, and they are typically labeled for hot or cold water to ensure proper installation.
Regular maintenance and occasional testing of angular stopcocks are essential to ensure they operate correctly and don’t develop leaks. If you need to shut off the water to a particular fixture or make plumbing repairs, the angular stopcock is a valuable component for controlling the water flow in your plumbing system.
